I'd be willing to bet that all antenna manufacturers cut corners in all their processes in order to bring to market a product the consumer will probably purchase at a price they will probably pay. I

Before you make the guy an offer, get out of the mindset that the tower is worth anything at all, even to the point that the current owner ought to pay you to haul it off. Once you're in that frame o
